From healer builds thread.

I want this to be my go to healer so IF I need a whole new build I am open to it.

    The 1st build looks mostly fine for a more all-rounded healer/nuker, though you could sub out a power for an normal AoE heal on it (like Arcane Vit, Vala's Light, or Life Essence) to help in larger group content. The 2nd build lacks an ally res and a normal AoE attack (the latter may not be a high priority, though), and you may want R3 in the block for it. The 3rd build is alright (esp if you like reses and AoE healing). Aside from a normal ally/tank heal and reses (which I consider the basics for a healer build, outside of the usual stuff like the passive, toggle/form, and block), much of the rest of the build will depend on how else you want to support your team in terms of buffs and other heals (and potentially other things like nukes, debuffs, and/or CC). So, it'll somewhat come down to your own preferences, since many different healer build types can be made to work for the high-end (as shown in the healer build thread).

    Heh, I have to say that lately I've become tired of rezzing the same people over and over at cosmics. Some seem to have no clue on how to block, others absolutely refuse to use the Recover button, no matter what (even if there is only 1 healer trying to keep the tank alive). I am sorely tempted to just have a nice batch of heals, good aura, and self rez, and then I won't feel any pressure to rez other people ;)

    Update Build 1
    (...)
    Any changes to stats / spec?
    Guardian is okay if you want to buff your nukes and your crit severity and defense a bit. If you want more of a defense + support mix then you could take Sentry instead (or Protector if you just want more raw survival for yourself). The stats seem good for it.
    Updated Build 2
    (...)
    Passive a good choice?
    Yea, AoED is good if you want to focus more on offense and buffing ally dps.
    Updated Light Bright
    (...)
    Good enough to farm Cosmic for Virtue gear?
    Although it could work, I'd prob use a build that still had Iniquity in it for Cosmics. It is the best single-target ally heal in the game atm (and its baseline 100ft range helps).
    (YET ANOTHER HEALER build)

    Good enough to farm Cosmic for Virtue gear?
    It's okay, but I may use PRES/Int/Con as the SS setup, esp when using Iniquity cause Pres' Selfless Ally can mostly negate Iniquity's self-dmg, and that SS setup gives you some extra leeway w/ Con SS.

    Eh, in that case I'd prob still keep an ally res for friends and players that make the occasional screw up, but not use it on players that keep dying and maybe have a chat macro that's like "If you keep dying, pls Recover" or something.
